Project: QT Auckland, New Zealand
Photography: Alex Wallace
Designer’s notes: QT Auckland, in New Zealand, is a design-driven hotel with a forthright classic-modern façade and soulful interior spaces filled with light, art and design moments that are derived from local narratives; a series of spaces that have a sense of warmth and sometimes nostalgia, cocooned in the shell of repurposed office building.
The winners of the Australian Interior Design Awards will be announced in Sydney on Friday 17 June, 2022.
